Chapter 496 Immortal’s Methods, Sword Talisman!
collapse!
A crisp sound was heard, and a stream of light passed in front of Lingxiao Tower.
The Breaking Seal·Star Shift in Gu Jieshuang's hand shattered with a sound!
At this moment, she was still maintaining the posture of swinging the sword towards Ling E. Now that the long sword in her hand suddenly broke, she inevitably felt a little unstable. However, although she was shocked, she reacted extremely quickly because she was in the star-level perception state.
He adjusted his center of gravity with a roll, and then took a few steps to distance himself from Ling E.
Seeing this, Ling E's eyes lit up: "Good skills."
The timing of his sword strike was perfect, finding the moment when Gu Jieshuang stepped into the air and the old strength was about to be used up but the new strength had not yet been generated.
You have to know that when a melee soul card master is in a state of high-speed movement, the entire body has become a harmonious whole. In this state, a slight change in the center of gravity may cause the person to fall off the horse.
Under normal circumstances, the soul card can definitely be adjusted back, but Ling E has been fighting for a lifetime, so he naturally knows when is the most appropriate time.
This technique...is actually useless. There is no chance of using it in a battle of the same level. We are all old monsters. Who would give you such an obvious weakness? Besides, people with this strength will fly more or less.
It's only suitable for bullying weak ones.
In the past, this trick always worked when facing younger people, but it didn't work on Gu Jieshuang.
Although he had expected it, Ling E was still a little surprised by Gu Jieshuang's ultimate control over his body.
After stabilizing his body, Gu Jieshuang looked at Ling E, frowning slightly.
“What was that just now…?”
It was certain that she would be abused by Ling E, and she was not surprised.
But the method was somewhat different from what she had imagined.
My own soul card... didn't seem to have suffered any direct damage, but it went directly into death cooldown?
Hearing this, Ling E smiled.
"You've seen this method before."
A streak of light trembled and spun in the air, and slowly came in front of Ling E.
"This is called 'Sword Talisman'."
Gu Jieshuang's gaze fell on the sword talisman.
Just now, when the sword talisman moved, even she, who had entered the star-level perception state and the world in her eyes had slowed down greatly, found it difficult to keep up with the speed of the sword talisman.
It was so fast, like a real light... She couldn't see clearly and was hit.
However, the sword talisman did not seem to cause her any objective harm.
"Sword Talisman is one of the combat styles under the 'Tianmen' system," Ling E explained. "The Tianmen system is very popular in Yan Country. Many Yan Country Soul Card Masters above level seven use the Tianmen system. However, the entry threshold to the Tianmen system is also very high, and not everyone is qualified to use it."
Gu Jieshuang was silent.
But he already knew what Ling E was talking about.
Tianmen System, Yan Country’s unique soul card system… As the name suggests, the rhythm in this system all comes from the mythical totem Tianmen.
In the past, everyone only knew that the Tianmen system was easy to use, but they didn’t know where it came from. They only regarded it as a characteristic of the Tianmen space, just like the breath-holding flight in the Youhuang Heaven.
But now, after understanding the story of the Xili myth, it is obvious what this Tianmen system is.
Obviously, this is what Xi Li originally envisioned, the power system after abandoning the Soul Energy Well - Immortal!
Although Xi Li failed, the prototype of the immortal was preserved in Tianmen and was reproduced in the form of cards by card makers who came to Tianmen in later generations.
It is strange to say that something that was originally a replacement for the Soul Card has become a type of Soul Card... This may be the horror of the power of the Emperor Star. Anything under the starry sky cannot escape the control of the power of the Emperor Star.
The threshold of the Tianmen system is quite high, and it is difficult to encounter this kind of soul card below level six, but Yu Cang has seen one before.
The swordsman from Tianmen!
This was the epic summoning card that Captain Wanquan used to trigger the Forbidden Engine during the last emergency project of the military overhaul.
At that time, under the influence of the forbidden engine, the swordsmen of Tianmen evolved into cyber Gundam Sword Immortals and Consciousness Sword Immortals, and directly killed the high-ranking heir with two lives.
In that battle, it was mainly the Weeping Girl who was doing the heavy attacking, but the sword practitioners of Tianmen also had a very good foundation, otherwise they would not be very strong even if they evolved.
And before my eyes...
The stream of light floating beside Ling E is obviously also a part of the Tianmen system!
"Whether it's a sword talisman or a dispelling talisman, they're just one type of 'talisman'. I won't mention the other talismans for now—you're a swordsman, so I'll naturally use the sword talisman against you."
Ling E's face revealed an inexplicable smile: "I am considered to have some talent... When I first started learning how to use this sword talisman, it took me two full days to get the hang of it, so you don't have to be impatient."
Gu Jieshuang's eyes revealed a thoughtful look: "Sword Talisman... Is this a kind of equipment card?"
"Yes and no," Ling E said. "Well, there's no point in talking any more. Just attack. After a few more moves, you'll understand."
"……good."
Gu Jieshuang's eyes became slightly serious.
Speaking of which, the day before yesterday, Senior Ling E also used this sword talisman when fighting Duan Zai.
Never mind... let's continue fighting first.
Thinking of this, Gu Jieshuang's expression became stern. He raised his hand and summoned a dust-sealed holy sword. [Leaving Traces of the Past Saints] was then activated, and the sword intent - Frost Sky Snow Waterfall was already behind him!
However, the current Dust-Sealed Holy Sword is only a fifth-level equipment card after all, and the quality of the sword intent it can cover is only fifth-level.
But it doesn't matter. Gu Jieshuang is now level six, and the upper limit of the soul card level that he can use directly has reached level ten, so this sword intent can be activated directly!
As soon as he thought about it, a light flashed in Gu Jieshuang's eyes.
Buzz!
Behind him, the Sword Soul Card that was placed in the bag was directly turned over, and at this moment, the star level skyrocketed and directly reached the ninth level!
The Sword Intent Soul Card is a very special soul card. Its actual quality varies, depending on the soul card master's own level of understanding of this sword intent.
Gu Jieshuang's comprehension of the Frost Sky Sword Intent had already reached the level of being handed down from generation to generation, so he could use the ninth level directly... and like now, raising the fifth level of sword intent to the ninth level in the instant of Gai Fang was also completely possible.
The advantage of this operation is that it effectively utilizes the power of the Dust-Sealed Holy Sword, consumes relatively little soul energy, and increases explosive power. The disadvantage is... the extra step gives the enemy more time to react, and the fifth level is also weaker when it is placed, which increases the risk of being taken advantage of.
But now, of course, there is no need to worry about this problem.
As soon as the ninth-level sword intent was turned on, it turned into a green energy ring, carrying wind and snow and rapidly surrounding the sword edge, and then as Gu Jieshuang brushed it with his hand, it shattered one after another!
Buzz!
The shattered energy became blurred for a moment, the wind and snow suddenly became strong, and the sky became gloomy in an instant. When the vision returned, the dusty holy sword in Gu Jieshuang's hand had changed its appearance.
9+5, level 14, slash the cold sky!
Although this soul card is only at level fourteen, as the first handed down card in Yu Cang's entry recorder, its mechanism is also first-class and advanced.
Not to mention the large-scale weather control and flight capabilities, the combination of [Shattered Return] and [Ultimate Slash] makes this soul card much stronger than you can imagine!
brush!
The wind and snow rolled back, turning into a torrent that fell on the tip of Gu Jieshuang's sword. Starlight and cold light flashed in her eyes, and she swung the sword, cutting off all the cold sky!
boom!
Sword energy gushed out, however...
Facing the overwhelming sword energy, Ling E nodded with satisfaction.
Not bad, a good soul card, Gu Jieshuang’s control is also amazing.
However……
clang!
The sound of a sword rang out of nowhere, not loud, but it was particularly catchy amid the whistling sound of the wind and snow. Then a flash of light passed by, and the sword symbol swept across the field, and the wind and snow immediately dissipated!
Bang!
Gu Jieshuang only felt that his hands were empty, and Hantian Jinzhan had been broken.
Her brow furrowed.
Why is it still like this...
[Shattered Return] allows the Frost Sky Slash to break into fragments after being damaged in battle, and then condense into a sword again after absorbing the cold air.
This ability may seem unremarkable at first glance, but it becomes very powerful when combined with Synchro.
Synchro will make the summoned terminal very unstable, and the instability will become greater as the quality increases.
Frost Sky Slash is no exception, but... as long as I trigger [Shattered Return], allowing Frost Sky Slash to shatter and then re-condense, it is equivalent to refreshing the state of this sword!
The Frost Sky Slash summoned by the synchro summon is unstable. What does it have to do with my resurrected and re-condensed Frost Sky Slash?
As long as [Shattered Return] is triggered once, the sword will be exactly the same as a normal summon, and there will be no hidden dangers of instability. And the soul energy saved by synchronized summoning... is naturally used for free.
Of course, [Shattered Return] will only be triggered if it is damaged in battle. It cannot be triggered if you wait until it becomes unstable and collapses on its own...but this problem is also easy to solve.
Every time this soul card appears, it can activate [Ultimate Slash] once. Under normal circumstances, this move does not put much burden on the equipment card itself, but in an unstable state... it will naturally destroy itself because of this super-large-scale attack.
This also counts as battle damage.
After [Shattered Return] is re-condensed, it can be activated as a soul card, and [Ultimate Slash] can be activated again.
In other words, the Frost Sky Slash summoned by Synchro Summon is equivalent to being able to launch two consecutive large-scale slashes as soon as it appears on the scene, coupled with the low consumption of Synchro Summon... the explosive power is extremely strong!
This is why this card is said to have an advanced mechanism... This card is simply born for Synchro!
At this moment, Gu Jieshuang chose to use this soul card, hoping to counter the sword talisman's strange ability... But, it was useless!
Just now, when the sword talisman passed by, his Frost Sky Slash immediately entered death cooldown... and did not trigger [Shattered Return]!
Isn't the damage caused by the sword talisman counted as combat damage? But that's too strange.
……wrong.
Gu Jieshuang's eyes narrowed.
Senior Ling E, what exactly do you want me to realize?
If it was just a matter of showing the soul card, it would be over at this point.
Gu Jieshuang vaguely felt that she seemed to have grasped something, but she had no clue.
……continue.
With a wave of her hand, the snow and wind were dispersed, and the sky was clear again. In Gu Jieshuang's hand, a dusty holy sword appeared again. [Leaving Traces of the Saint] was triggered, and the sword intent of Spring and Autumn was covered and placed behind him.
After waiting for a while, until the cooling of Sword Intent·Tianyuan Xingyi was finished, Gu Jieshuang also released it.
During this process, Ling E just kept looking at her with a smile and did not take any action.
This wasn't a life-and-death fight.
Gu Jieshuang took a deep breath, and then took out a soul card.
Super-level synchronization!
Reduce the star rank of the Dust-Sealed Holy Sword and the two Sword Intent Cards by one, and use them as materials for synchronization!
Double star adjustment!
Lin Yunqing had long been aware of the instability of synchronization. When the super-level synchronization was first created, it was intended to solve this problem.
Compress star level!
It seems that reducing three level fives into three level fours in order to make up the star level is a bit meaningless, but experiments have shown that the star level after suppression can consolidate the stability of the synchronization terminal!
Although the materials are more fragmented and more numerous after the star level is reduced...but as long as I compress them hard enough, the improvement in stability will far outweigh the reduction in material fragmentation!
Although the sword intent can also adjust one's star level, to do this, one must also adjust one's corresponding perception.
If you lower the fifth-level sword intent to the fourth level, then the star level is just lowered, not "compressed".
The sword intent that was reduced to the fourth level by this super-level synchronization is still at the fifth level in essence. In this way, it is naturally more powerful!
However... the super-level synchronization card made by Lin Yunqing can only compress one star level. When used in actual combat... the improvement in stability is very limited, and it is not even noticeable. Only Gu Jieshuang can make good use of this soul card.
Buzz!
The halo fell on the sword tip, and Gu Jieshuang shook the sword and pointed it forward. All the halos were instantly shattered, and a long sword appeared from it.
Level 12, sword name, Sitian!
Ling E's eyes lit up.
It's a long sword I've never seen before.
Gu Jieshuang... has quite a lot of equipment cards in his hand, which is very suitable for using the "Sword Talisman".
Thinking of this, Ling E moved his fingers slightly, and the sword talisman beside him immediately responded and rushed out!
Gu Jieshuang's eyes were filled with starlight, and he immediately swung his sword. Si Tian swung and chopped, and the starlight flickered near the sword tip, connecting into a track, and the sword chopped straight towards the sword symbol!
This time... she struck!
She pushed her star-level perception to the extreme, and the world around her almost came to a standstill. Only her thoughts could still flow normally. In this world, she finally saw the trajectory of the sword symbol!
Seeing that it was still useless, her body speed was still slow - but [Qin Tian Wei Jian] made her speed become the sum of all the moving targets on the field, that is to say, equal to the sword symbol!
In this way, the speed condition is also met!
However, this is not pleasant.
The speed of the sword talisman was too fast. Gu Jieshuang used Si Tian to forcibly increase her speed to this level, but her body could not bear it at all... So, she could only swing this sword, just one sword!
clang!
In an instant, Si Tian and the sword talisman collided with each other, and Ling E's expression changed quietly.
So fast...how is it possible!
Bang!
Si Tian slowly shattered in Gu Jieshuang's hands. She was breathing heavily, but a confident smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"I know what the key is... Senior Ling."
